Yard House at the Fountains in Roseville

With my mom and a few family members at the Bradley Lodge, my dad and I headed to the Yard House in Roseville for dinner tonight. With a beer list and menu of 130+ items each, there are plenty of choices for everyone. The island bar in the center of the restaurant is among the longest I have ever seen and has three miles of beer lines overhead that deliver each beer from a keg storage room to the bar and into waiting glasses.

We decided that for our first visit, we would try it all ... well at least have a few courses.

Beers: Big Sky Moose Drool and Grand Teton Bitch Creek ESB (Extra Special Bitters)

Starter/Snack: Sweet Potato Fries with creamed maple bacon dip

Main Courses:
Surf & Turf - Swiss Cheese, grilled asparagus, Maine lobster sauteed in garlic sautéed in garlic butter, tomato béarnaise

Spicy Jambalaya - blackened jumbo shrimp, spicy chicken–andouille sausage, red and pasilla peppers pan blackened with sweet crawfish and cajun tomato cream sauce served with linguini pasta, jasmine or brown rice
Desserts: Mini Chocolate Soufflé with vanilla ice cream and Mini Peach Apple Cobbler with caramel ice cream
 
The presentation and taste of every dish was fantastic. My only complaint ... my soufflé didn't seem to puff up like I am used to, so it was more of a chocolate cake/brownie with ice cream. That said, it was divine and I still ate it.

I loved the Moose Drool, my dad enjoys ESBs, so he was a huge fan of the Grand Teton.

Snow at Fort Bradley

After a great open house with friends and family at Fort Bradley, a birthday dinner at Zocolo and watching Blind Side , I did not think the day could get much better ... but then it started to snow. Fort Bradley is looking more and more like the Bradley Lodge and is becoming a " Winter Wonderland ." Or maybe it's beginning to look a little more like Christmas .

Celebrating Peanut Butter and Pancake Days, Skiing and Friends

Image
It was a week of varied experiences. I used my Chick-Fil-A Calendar Card for an order of free fries (and also ordered a wrap and ice cream sundae ) while out to dinner with a friend, then joined my parents for the weekend at the Bradley Lodge . My dad and I got a beautiful day of skiing in at Bear Valley ... beautiful since so much snow had fallen. My mom and grandma went all out on dinner and we celebrated Peanut Butter Day with a dessert of Reese's Chips Ahoy Cookies and Reese's Peanut Butter Pie (funny part ... we had no idea it was going to be Peanut Butter Day in advance, we just already had those items and it made for a good excuse to eat them). On Sunday I met with with friends at Rolling Hills Christian Church for a night of worship and baptism and then we headed to dinner at Casa Ramos ... my plate of food was giant (I actually brought leftovers home). On Tuesday I found out it was Pancake Day and figured I should celebrate. I made a few pancakes for my room
